Elton John's song should be renamed "The Beach is Back." That's what I was singing yesterday when Dave and I ventured out to the Isle of Palms after he got home from work.
Since May, "our" beach has been packed with vacationers. That was sad for us because we couldn't take Nomini for walks on the beach (anyone who knows our dog knows how much she likes is absolutely terrified of people). We've tried to socialize her and get her used to people, but she has been very stubborn about it. And now that she's close to seven years old, we figure there's no changing her. Since mid-spring, Nomini hasn't been to the beach and we haven't gone as much because it was just too crowded.
So yesterday, Dave, Nomini, and I decided to test the waters and see if the crowds left after Labor Day. We were delighted to find we had the beach to ourselves again!! It was awesome!!! It was breezy and warm and just like heaven. Nomini was super thrilled and I'm happy that we once again have "our" beach back (at least until next May).
